I’m doing a report about it and I need to find a case in which a company got sued for encouraging anorexia (and sending the wrong message to the public).
Thanks for any help!!!
Here are some links that may help (this was the only anorexia lawsuit info I could find, except for lawsuits against drug companies):

Also found this:
January 26-28, 2001 — Anorexia as disability. Keri Krissik is suing Stonehill College in Massachusetts "for refusing to let her register on the grounds of her anorexia," in violation, she says, of the Americans with Disabilities Act. "Miss Krissik stands 5-feet-six-inches and weighs less than 100 pounds." ("Anorexia as a disability?", Washington Times (editorial), Jan. 18).
